Competition Winners

He had the choice of 2 prizes … an all expenses paid trip to a Man Utd or £1,000. As you can see from the photo, he is not a Mn Utd fan. He was won a free bet and a range of McLean’s merchandise!

Simon was the lucky winner of our Tommy Bowe signed Ireland Rugby top. The above image shows him enjoying St Patrick’s Day festivities wearing the top. All he had to do was enter a social media competition to win! Keep an eye out on our social media pages for our next competition…

DUNLOY FATHER AND SON SHARE UNITED’S WEMBLEY JOY

Dyed-in-the-wool Manchester United fans Brendan Crawford and his son Aaron were among the 85,000 Wembley crowd to watch their heroes triumph in Sunday’s ECL Cup Final after winning a radio draw organised by McLean Bookmakers.

They were sitting just 14 rows back when Zlatan Ibrahimovic headed home the goal at the United end of the stadium which gave the Reds a 3-2 victory over Southampton.

Brendan, 44, from Dunloy, and son Aaron, 16, a pupil at St Louis grammar school, Ballymena, jumped for joy as Ibrahimovic ran towards the corner flag to be mobbed by jubilant team mates.

Brendan’s wife Bernadine, a school secretary, won the match tickets, as well as flights, accommodation and £250 spending money, in a Cool FM radio competition organised by McLeans, Northern Ireland’s largest independent bookmaking chain with more than 60 shops.

But she immediately handed over prize to her husband, a life-long United supporter, and son.

Bernadine was shopping in Belfast when she heard she had won the draw. She was unable to contact Brendan who had an appointment with the barbers, and instead called Aaron.

She couldn’t believe her luck. Just days earlier, she overheard a conversation between the pair as they watched Jose Mourino’s men on TV, when Brendan

spoke of the possibility of travelling with his son to another Manchester United game

They had viewed the Reds live twice before, both times against Arsenal, once at Old Trafford and a second time when they found themselves sitting among Gunners supporters at the Emirates. But they were seated among their own on Sunday.

Brendan, a contracts manager with a Dunloy construction firm, had been to Wembley before. He was with a brother. But it was only to see the iconic old stadium being demolished, before being re-built.

He is an occasional punter, but admitted his luck was really in when Bernadine revealed she had won the sort of prize Manchester United’s ticketless Northern Ireland-based fans can only dream about.

Brendan, who was presented with his tickets by McLean’s marketing manager Megan McCormick, said: “The atmosphere was absolutely brilliant. We were there an hour and a half before the kick off to soak up the atmosphere, and although I’ve watched United play better football, the result was what mattered.

“I couldn’t believe how close we were to the pitch. The United fans outnumbered Southampton’s by 60-40% and I suppose they felt very unlucky after coming from two down to level the match. But Ibrahimovic is some player. That goal was something else.”

Congratulations to Wayne Ewart, who won 2 tickets to the afternoon session of the NI Open Snooker Final on Sunday 20th November 2016.

The Scalextricscompetition was held over four weeks in over 20 of our shops. Entrants had to get a car around 10 laps of our Scalextrics set in the fastest time possible without coming off the track.

Everyone who took part in the competition received their choice of two free gifts (a £5 free play voucher for our gaming machines or a McLeans polo shirt). The entrant to post the fastest time in each shop received a £20 FREE BET and entry into a draw to win the overall prize (a trip to Adrenalin Karting with a friend).

There were five names pulled out of the overall draw with each winner being allowed to bring along a friend to Adrenaline Karting.

What they didn’t know was that there was an even bigger prize at stake… the five winners and their friends all raced in a mini Grand Prix at Adrenaline Karting in the hope of becoming the winner of the mystery prize.

That lucky winner was Adam Allister, who finished the race in 1st place and won an Ultimate Driving Experience Prize at Alltrack Rally Sport.
